Drowning Girl
Roy Lichtenstein
1963
MoMA, New York City, NY, USA

Run for Love
Tony Abruzzo
1962

Lichtenstin’s Drowning Girl was based off of cover art done by DC Comics illustrator Tony Abruzzo. In what ways does Lichtenstein’s editing of the thought bubble text and reworking of the composition affect the piece? Why is Lichtenstein’s painting hanging in a museum, when Abrazzo’s would most likely had flown under the radar had it not been recreated? Is one piece more “art” than the other?
